There is something about a small town wedding.  I know in the city, we are always fortunate to have access to some pretty nice places in case the weather is bad and in our small prairie towns, that isn't always the case.  However, there is still something about a small town wedding.  Maybe its the genuine people that open up their homes and yards to you.  Maybe its how everyone scrambles for keys to schools, heritage buildings and elevators just in case you might need them.  Maybe its how all the guests seem so genuinely thrilled for the newly married couple and applaud at the end of their vows, making them kiss three consecutive times until they were satisfied it was enough.  Maybe its all of the above.  Well this past weekend, I witnessed all of that.  So much laughter and tears that it truly makes your heart swell.  This lovely couple had the whole support of their towns and it was great to see.  We even went to the Kelvington High School, which is where each and every member of the wedding party went to High School.  Some may say that its not the perfect location for wedding photos, but others may realize how perfect it is.  Thank you Jill, Josh, your families and friends for making my day such a great one.  A special thanks to Bob and Linda Taylor for the use of their beautiful back yard during the 45 minutes of "no rain" on Saturday.  And congratulations again Jill and Josh.  You guys are a great couple and I know you have many happy years ahead of you.

Well, another beautiful Saturday and another beautiful wedding.  This one was on a picturesque farm just outside of Yorkton.  The house and grounds were so beautiful. It looked like a post card.  Mom and Dad had been working very hard to make it just right for the wedding and did a fantastic job.  I must say it was a great day.  The bride and the groom, as usual, were awesome.  I must say, I do have the most amazing brides & grooms.  Their wedding party, hysterical.  I seriously laughed so hard all day.  As I say after every shoot, I really do have the best job in the world.  Thank you Jennifer and Jason for including me in your day.  I was honored to shoot your wedding and help out just a little.  Have a wonderful honeymoon and enjoy this small selection of images from your day. :)

Wow, what can I say about this Bride and Groom.  The first thing that's pretty obvious is that they are drop dead gorgeous.  But there's so much more than that.  As I got to know them throughout the day and listened to the tales told by family and friends, I could see there is so much more to them.  Incredibly smart, talented, athletic, loving, shy (sometimes, lol) and truly dedicated to each other and everything they do in life.  Stephen, along with being incredibly handsome and smart is this amazing hockey player, hard working farmer and joker by the sounds of things.  Amber, again, incredibly beautiful, smart and talented as well as the fact that she seems to be able to tackle anything athletically that she tries.  Did I mention she's an Iron Man....or would that be Iron Woman, lol.  Anyway, the two of them, combined with their great friends and family put on a fantastic wedding.  Here are a few images from their day.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Well I have been waiting for over a year to photograph this wedding.  I met Jarred and Allysen when they came out to my farm for their engagement photos and I loved them right away.  They were obviously very much in love and willing to go anywhere or do what ever I asked for their photos.  Plus Allysen rocked these amazing purple heals out in the pasture, lol. So of course I was looking forward to their wedding day and they absolutely did not disappoint.  On top of that, they had the sweetest families and wedding party.  I know I say it all the time, but I truly am so lucky to be doing what I love and to work with such great people.  Jarred and Allysen are such a great, loving and very hard working couple.  On top of that all, they looked so fantastic on their wedding day and I am totally in love with Allysen's dress.  It was so unique.  Modern yet vintage.  LOVE IT!  Thanks again you guys for allowing me to capture your special day.  It truly was a blast.  I know this is a super long post but I am having such a hard time deciding on images.  Enjoy!

This past weekend I had the honor of shooting the wedding of Heather and Jarret.  I have been booked for this wedding for such a long time and hadn't had a chance to meet the bride and groom yet.  I had no idea what lovely people I was about to work with.  Heather and Jarret are both such sweet and loving people.  Sorry Jarret for calling you sweet, lol, but you are.  They are both so truly in love and their families were obviously very moved during their ceremony.  As usual the wedding party was FAB!  I don't know how I get so lucky to have such great people to work with.  I really do have the best job.  As a side note, the bride got ready at the very chic Salon Fli.  What a cool salon and the stylists there are awesome.  Heather looked even more lovely when she left than when she arrived.  Well, thanks again Heather and Jarret for allowing me to share in your special day.  I truly wish you both all the best in your new life together.  Here's just a small selection of photos from your day!  Enjoy!

Well this blog post is a little late since I have been in the middle of a big move.  It's also partially late because this couple rocked their photos so well, its been almost impossible to choose just a few, so get ready for a long post.  I met with Janelle and Michael over a year ago to book their wedding and have been looking forward to it ever since.  They are beautiful people, inside and out.  So are their friends and families.  We had a blast.  Thanks everyone.  I would just like to add that the girls had all their hair and makeup done at this wonderful shop called Indira Salon and Spa.  Be sure to check them out.  They were such a great bunch of girls and did great work.  Also, while at the spa, Michael had a special gift delivered to Janelle.  You will see a few photos of these amazing cupcakes that honestly looked too beautiful to eat.  They are also just as delicious as they are beautiful and they came from the wonderful Koko Patisserie on Broad St in Regina.  If you are looking for some extra special, unforgettable treats, Koko is definitely the place to go so be sure to check them out.  Thanks again Michael, Janelle and family for being so great to work with.  Congratulations and all the best in your wonderful new life together.

On Saturday I had the pleasure of shooting Kristle and Josh's winter wedding.  We were very fortunate to have quite a nice day, for February that is.  But with such great families and bridal party, I think we could have handled anything.  Thanks everyone for being so wonderful to work with and to Josh and Kristle for being such a relaxed bride and groom.  A special thank you goes out to Tom and Mike at the Regina Flying Club.  They really rolled out the red carpet for us.  Thanks guys.  Much appreciated.
